“School in the Lagos collapsed building was operating illegally” – Governor Ambode says

Akinwunmi Ambode, Lagos state governor, says the school that was in the Lagos collapsed building in the Ilafaji area of the state was operating illegally.

Ambode speaking when he visited the scene of the Lagos collapsed building scene, he said the school and shops in the three-storey building, were not authorized and were operating “illegally” in the building, which is meant sole CCGly for residential purposes.

The governor further said that many of the structures in the area would be demolished as they are not structurally fit.

He said,

“The building is not technically a school, it is a residential building that was actually accommodating an illegal school, so to speak, on the second floor,”
